Investment choice

Choice


The SIT SIPP is about choice, control and flexibility. The SIPP allows you to choose when, how much and where to invest according to your circumstances and needs at any particular time.

You can choose from the comprehensive range of investments listed below.

  • Equities listed on the FTSE 100, 250 and FTSE All-Share
  • Shares in Investment Trusts, including SIT 
  • Exchange Traded Funds also known as Tracker Funds
  • Units in a wide range of authorised UK unit trusts
  • Shares in UK Open Ended Investment Companies (OEICs)
  • Gilts
  • Corporate fixed and convertible bonds
  • CREST Depositary Interests (CDIs)
  • Alternative Investment Market shares (AIM)
  • Warrants in UK shares settled in CREST
  • UK convertible and cumulative preference stock
  • International equities listed in New York (AMEX, NASDAQ, NYSE), Frankfurt, (XETRA), Milan (MTA), Paris (Euronext), Amsterdam (Euronext) and Brussels (Euronext)

Included in the list of allowable investments are shares in The Scottish Investment Trust PLC (SIT). As a global growth investment trust, SIT could provide the ideal core of your pension portfolio.

Please note The SIT SIPP is offered on an execution-only basis and without advice. The inclusion of an investment vehicle in the range of investments eligible for The SIT SIPP is not a recommendation to buy that investment. The responsibility for the choice of any investment and the management of your SIPP portfolio lies solely with you. Increased investment choice also brings increased complexity, and active management and investment expertise are needed for a SIPP. Warrants are particularly complex instruments and you must complete an appropriateness test before you can invest in them through The SIT SIPP.
